Chapter 10: His Smile
After the end of Yao Beibei’s practice, Bai Ziming turned to look at her, but his face was incredulous: “You could already feel the qi of heaven and earth?”
“Huh?” Yao Beibei raised her eyebrows, not understanding why Bai Ziming asked her so. She didn’t know if the five-colored sprites who went in her body last night was just the qi of heaven and earth? If the answer was yes, then she had sensed the qi.
Bai Ziming did not speak, but pointed his finger at Yao Beibei’s clothes.
When Yao Beibei bowed her head, she realized that her body had secreted a layer of black and stinky liquid again, and her clothes were all dirty!
Suddenly, Yao Beibei became upset. She didn’t know what was happening to her recently. Why was there so many dirty things on her body? Yesterday, today, and the smell was even heavier today! Could it be that the heaven was jealous of her and gave her an incurable disease? Oh no!
“These are the impurities in your body. You sense the qi of heaven and earth. After the qi enters the meridian, it would run a cycle in the meridian and gradually force the impurities out of the body. That’s why it’s called Meridian Cleansing. After all the impurities in the body have been discharged, the body will reach a state where it could absorb the qi on its own and automatically circulate, and you have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.” Looking at her perplexed face, Bai Ziming guessed reason and explain to her, happy for her in his heart. Although she had a five-element spirit base, her cultivation speed was not slow, and he hoped that her future cultivation would be smooth as well.
Yao Beibei nodded, suddenly remembering that she had a lot of impurities in her body yesterday morning. She wondered if she already felt the aura yesterday. Obviously she had not started practicing yesterday, how strange!
“It’s almost time, and we should go to the magic practice area for lessons!” Bai Ziming said, looking at the sky and putting away the futon.
“Brother Bai, then, please hit me with a cleaning spell!” Yao Beibei’s face was stained, and showed off her white teeth. Usually calm, Bai Ziming shuddered and casted a cleaning spell on her.
Hey, if there is a cleaning spell, why waste her cleaning charms? Yao Beibei applied the spirit of frugality to a wide range of scenarios.
“Brother Bai, do you have a mirror? Could you give me one?” Yao Beibei remembered that so much impurities had been discharged from her body, she must have become a lot more beautiful, and she had to confirm it. In that case, she would cultivate with a lot more motivation.
“No!” Bai Ziming’s answer was very simple.
Yao Beibei was a little surprised. Bai Ziming, who was so beautiful, had no mirror. She could ask him if she was more beautiful, as his eyes were ready-made mirrors. But how could you ask this kind of question!
By the time Bai Ziming and Yao Beibei arrived at the practice field, most of the people were there. It was not the white-bearded history teacher, but a man who seemed to be in his twenties sitting in the lounge.
The man was medium-sized, with a slightly yellowed skin. His thick eyebrows were slightly apart, looking above average. His white cloak made him look handsome and sturdy, adding a lot of points. Several female disciples were already secretly blushing at him.
Twenty-three people arrived at this introductory training. The man walked out of the lounge and came to the crowd: “Hi young men and women, how are you! My name was Lan Rulie. During the introductory training, I’m responsible for teaching you basic spells. Your spiritual base information had been given to me by the sect, and the spells you learned are based on the attributes of your spiritual base. For basic spells of each attribute, I would first teach you the words, gestures and techniques. Then I would show you. Because there are many spells, I would show each spell up to three times, and the rest you would have to learn by yourself. In addition, each spell has a different practice area, you must be in the corresponding area for your spells, but do not fight one another under the same sect, otherwise I would report it to the school! ”
“Hi teacher Lan, thank you for your teachings!” The twenty-three people looked different, but their voices were very consistent.
After the day, Yao Beibei’s mind was full of all kinds of chants, gestures and techniques. It was already mixed up, and not even a complete spell was remembered! At this moment she was chewing a green grass in her mouth, crossed her hands under her head as a pillow, and sighed while lying on the grass.
“Spells are perfected by practice. You haven’t reached the early stage of Meridian cleansing. These spells can’t be practiced, so the first thing to do was to absorb the Qi. Brother Lan had already cultivated in the middle stage of Foundation Establishment, but his age was not yet.seventy years old. If I am not mistaken, he had reached this period in his forties. The most important thing was that Brother Lan had the five elementary spirit base just like you, and his five elementary spirit base is not as balanced as yours.” Bai Ziming sat cross-legged beside Yao Beibei, his eyes softened.
“Huh?” Yao Beibei looked his crossed legs and swayed. “It seems that Brother Lan demonstrated all the spells to us today! I didn’t expect anyone else would be the same as the my five elements, but was it good to reach that stage at the age of forty? ”
“Not great, but with his spiritual base, it was already a miracle! In his five elements spiritual base, the three types of gold, wood and earth are more balanced, but the water was slightly more than these three, and fire was less. Also water and fire are two attributes that are incompatible with each other. Missing by an inch is missing by a mile, and this imbalanced spiritual base is very dangerous to cultivate. If you are not careful, you would have to worry about your life! But your five-element spirit base was very balanced. Each attribute is the same as another, and there will be no danger in cultivation. And you could sense the qi of heaven and earth in just one day. This speed was even faster than my ice attribute spirit base. I know that your cultivation speed would not be slow. Besides, there was no such thing as an absolute in the world. Whoever can say for sure that the five-element was a completely useless? I believe you are different. I believe you could rewrite the fate of five-element spirit base!”
Yao Beibei sat up instantly, her eyes sparkling, and she patted Bai Ziming’s shoulder: “Brother Bai, you really have a vision! Brother Lan had passed the entrance examination, I believe I would also pass. I would definitely be better than brother Lan! I always thought you were not good at words, I didn’t expect you to be able to say so much!” After that, she gave a thumbs up to Bai Ziming.
“When Brother Lan talked about the spells of each attribute today, didn’t I study them with you? Although I couldn’t cast the spells of other attributes, I still figured out some ways and could give you guidance! And This was for you.” Bai Ziming raised his mouth, and handed a bronze mirror to Yao Beibei with his right hand.
When Yao Beibei saw what Bai Ziming gave her, it was a mirror that she was thinking about, and her eyes suddenly lighted up: “Thank you!”
This bronze mirror had a rustic feel and was the size of her palm, but it could reflect her whole body. The mirror image was very clear, and it was also true to the color. Red was red, green was green, not like an ordinary bronze mirror that gave everything a yellow-toned tint.
She saw the girl in the mirror, her skin tone was slightly yellow, her eyebrows were thicker, her eyelashes were longer, her eyes were brighter, her lips were not as dark as before, and her yellow hair was also shiny. She was really more beautiful than before!
“Wow! Wow! Wow! Hahahahahaha…” Yao Beibei, holding a bronze mirror, looked at herself for a long time, and then suddenly laughed wildly, and Bai Ziming was scared as he didn’t know what happened.
“Hey, Brother Bai, I’m okay, I’m okay!” Yao Beibei waved her hands again and again, and then looked carefully at the bronze mirror.
The shape of the bronze mirror was a blooming hydrangea flower, with some delicate cloud patterns carved around it. The pattern in the middle of the mirror was a bit fuzzy and indistinguishable, and the outline looks like a mountain range. The bronze mirror was dull in color and should be passed down for quite a long time, with an ancient feel to it.
Yao Beibei’s hand holding the bronze mirror suddenly softened. This bronze mirror must be very precious. Bai Ziming gave it to her like this. In the morning, he said that there was no mirror, and in the evening, he got one. She didn’t know where it came from …
“Brother Bai, this mirror …”
“This was called the Icy Feather and Falling Petal Mirror, which I came by accidentally. It’s useless with me. I don’t know what to do with it besides looking at yourself with it. Since you need it, I will give it to you!”
“Thank Brother Bai!” Yao Beibei smiled even brighter and carefully put the mirror into her homemade satchel. This small satchel was modified with the clothes she had worn. Since she couldn’t use storage bags, she couldn’t possibly always hold things in her arms?
“Glad you like it. We wasted a lot of time today, hurry up and practice! After you absorb qi for some time, you should be in the early stage of Meridian Cleansing. Don’t worry!”
At the moment, Bai Ziming smiled. At that instant, the stars in the night sky seemed to sense a crisis, so they shone harder and brighter, but they were faint compared to his casual smile.
At that moment, flowers seemed to bloom just because they wanted him to notice, but no matter how beautiful or fragrant, they couldn’t catch his eye…
At that moment, it seemed as if everything between the heavens and the earth had lost its color, just because he smiled.
At that moment, it was like there was only one person in the world, that was Bai Ziming. Dark hair like a waterfall, bright teeth, bright eyes, a face of jade, bones of ice, snow white snow clothes fluttering in the breeze. She wanted to reach out and keep him, to keep his smile, want to make that moment an eternity.
At that moment, Yao Beibei was petrified that she never saw his smile. She never thought that his smile was so beautiful.
